  • Clicking and Tapping

    Adjust you mic so the constant tapping and clicking aren’t audible. Very distracting while you are talking.

    Good content but the noises are awful….

  • CLICKING KEYS ALL THE TIME!

    I like the content and have listened for years. But Howard has no sense of what is annoying to a listener. I swear he has his mic right on his keyboard. Amateur stuff Howie. I have to delete this podcast.

  • Hidden TDS

    Obviously dislikes Trump and ignores the corrupt left and mainstream press.

    Pretends he likes Trump but trashes him and ignores the lies.

    No thanks. Too biased.
